What it is and who needs it.
What the utility deposit bond actually does
Alcorn County Electric Power Association is the member-owned electric cooperative serving Corinth and Alcorn County, Mississippi. Like most utilities, it can require a security deposit before connecting service — especially for a new account or a commercial location — to protect against unpaid bills.
A utility deposit bond is a surety bond the association accepts in place of that cash deposit. It guarantees that if you fail to pay your electric bill, the association can recover the unpaid amount up to the bond’s limit — so you satisfy the deposit requirement without tying up cash.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the association on an unpaid balance, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the association set; the premium is 2% of that deposit, with a $100 minimum. No credit check up to $15,000.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
